You're the most politically alive person so far. It's about ensuring that Shettima doesn't continue as VP so that he would not be at advantage over "them and their" interest in 2031.

It takes someone whose foolishness is irredeemable to think that Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration care about the well-being of Nigerians.
